The objective of this study is to investigate the ways of industry 4.0 in brazil, especially in the steel sector. a literature review is used to investigate in the literature the main components of industry 4.0, its evolution and the main challenges to respond to current requirements, in order to better prepare students for the new reality. It is adopted as a didactic tool this new scenario that presents important socioeconomic paradigms that can affect both the industrial development of the world and brazil with it. The research results point to a need to update the industry as well as universities in preparing the future manager and engineer for new technologies and their integration in industrial processes.

The Portuguese language spoken in Brazil is evolving with social influences. The purpose of this study is to verify the incidence of language addiction, specifically the use of the term "type", among young university students of a Brazilian university. An online survey was conducted to find out the most common language addictions among students and the frequency with which they occur in speech. The data showed that the term "type" is among the most spoken among informants, second only to the terms "vei" and "mano" and is associated with the idea of uncertainty, unpreparedness, vice or imitation and lack of vocabulary expansion.

The objective of this study is to analyze the (co)llateral effects of the pandemic in a general aspect, showing positive and negative effects. However, highlighting marked changes to the environment, given the time when the emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere received a mandatory reduction as a result of social confinement. The methodological basis used is a systematic literature review, consulted in impact databases by the scientific community. We chose to search the Web of science, Science Direct and PubMed databases. The search keys were: pandemic, COVID-19, new coronavirus, effects of COVID-19. In addition, to analyze the presence of conceptual metaphors, opinion articles published in the world media, and published on the web during a pandemic were selected. The choice of texts is based on the theme of the new coronavirus and its impacts. The theoretical bias of Lakoff (1987; 2006) is adopted to explain metaphor on the cognitive plane, as a natural process of the human mind, that is, a way of thinking. This research is characterized in qualitative, bibliographic and analysis of content. The results show that the conceptual metaphors reveal an image of COVID-19 as the "savior" of the environment, for having forced man to stop as a need for carbon. It was concluded that the conceptual metaphors, being of a cognitive nature, appear in the form discourse, showing COVID-19 as agents of positive effects on the environment and business for the other areas of society.

The present study aims to investigate the perspective of students in the business course on innovation and the use of new teaching technologies in undergraduate learning and empowerment for the labour market in a city in northeastern Brazil. The methodology study is qualitative, conducted through a questionnaire tech-nique with open questions with students from a higher education institution, graduates of the business course and others who have already completed and are looking for space in the labour market. The results obtained in the present study suggest a greater participation of the university in the articulation of its trained professionals with the local companies, serving as a support platform and in this way enabling some monitoring of these graduates at the entrance of the local market, through networks of contacts that bring together companies of recent graduates. The conclusion of the study is that there is a complex situation, that despite the difficulties imposed by the economic crisis and lack of local opportu-nities, the chance of getting a job is better for those who, in fact, absorb as much of the knowledge that the course offers and get their diploma.
